You waited the whole film for the aliens to show... ::faceometer ::prepare me one of your traditional discographies

Rough hewn with hours of honest farm toil, the fO records represent niether songwriting perfection nor listenable recording. But it's the sound of the underground! That's why it has this slick white and grey verdana website with really small pictures! I can make any or all of these CDs for you on request, though I may brutally charge you for the older ones as a punishment for liking shit. Lap it up.

NB. There's now a Demo section at the bottom of this page which deals with the CDs I throw together to sell at gigs. They are usually compilations from the others, or have new tracks, or something.

::faceometer ::the garrag sessions (2004)

Les Sessiones Garrag were recorded in June 2004 in about 20 days during which we were both working full time. The songs were all written in the Jardin and recorded in Max's Garage, hence the name.

with Max Jones

tracklist 'It's like being behind Enemy Lines', 'Piste Cyclisme', 'Flat Gravity Theory', 'Hazy Recollection (Local Election)'

A look at childhood, youtch, school and science crafted with the inestimable Jones.

Mojave Hut was a labour of love and hate and the result is an equally mixed bag. It took about half a year to assemble these godawful 4track recordings but the songs in them still form the backbone of the fO live set. ::faceometer ::mojave hut (2003)

tracklist 'Sofa Loafer', 'How about Pasta with Tomato and Basil Sauce?', 'Model Village', 'Californian Styled', 'Quality, Dental Coverage', 'Velvet Octopus'

A recording of some of the hardcore FaceOmeter classics, involving Hamsters, friendship, junk mail and the other things we have to face. Atrociously low quality but for the most part good songs (except track 2).

::faceometer ::what if you were trapped in an evil carnival (2002)

The whole thing was done in 5 days - it was the challenge I set myself. Given the 'bad patch' I was going through and the amount of actual skill I had at the time, the rest was inevitable really.

tracklist 'DK', 'Space Rocket', 'Puppies', 'Jeremy Goring', 'Sunshine through Long Hair'

An almost laughably dire instrumental tribute to R.L.Stine featuring more random sound effects and drum machines than you could shake a stick at if you hadn't already passed out from the sheer rubbishness of this disturbing record.

The perfect place to reflect upon the nature of a set ::faceometer ::lord of the demo/random compilation

2. It's like being Behind Enemy Lines
3. Californian Styled
This CD was made for the Dufus gig on 8/5/5. 20 copies exist, each one hand-decorated with a different design by me and the Jones. If you bought this one we feel you should know that the profits bought us both an extremely nice chinese later that evening, so thanks very much!

pre-may 2005
I neglected to keep a record of the various demos I made before this period. Most of them contain the middle version of 'Leaf Fall Timetable', if memory serves. I know I made proper jewel cases for all of them, so they should light the path of truth for y'all.

'eat me out', she said, lowering her naked breasts over the other girl's well-oiled body. 'do it properly'.
